PrintStream PrintStream(File, Charset) in Java

PrintStream(File, Charset): This method is available in the java.io.PrintStream class of Java.

Syntax:

java.io.PrintStream.PrintStream(File file, Charset charset) throws IOException

This method takes two arguments. This method creates a new print stream, without automatic line flushing, with the specified file and charset.

This convenience constructor creates the necessary intermediate OutputStreamWriter, which will encode characters using the provided charset.

Parameters: One parameter is required for this method.

file: The file to use as the destination of this print stream. If the file exists, then it will be truncated to zero sizes; otherwise, a new file will be created. The output will be written to the file and buffered.

charset: A charset.

Throws:

1. IOException - if an I/O error occurs while opening or creating the file.

2. SecurityException - If a security manager is present and checkWrite(file.getPath())denies write access to the file.

Approach

Java

import java.io.FileNotFoundException;
import java.io.PrintStream;

public class PrintStreamPrintStream3 {
    public static void main(String[] args) 
                       throws FileNotFoundException {

        String fileName = "D:\\hello.txt";
        PrintStream printStream = new PrintStream(fileName);

        System.out.println(printStream);
        printStream.close();
    }
}

Output:

java.io.PrintStream@182decdb
